Holy crap! Iran is blacked out...

[dsentell]

I wonder if Bush is planning on starting a war with Iran, declaring marshal law and staying in office.

I have been expecting this for a long time . . . .

Doubtful, I think the CFR will be satisfied with Hllary and Mccain. We can still do this, fewer states are left, lets fucking pund the god damn ground, get the word out, snatch some states get in the conevntion. We can do this, we just have to work harder.

We need to cry damn it. CRY. Go canvassing in the remaining states. If they say they won't vote for Ron Paul, start crying and talk about wanting to save this nation and how Ron Paul is our only hope. It worked for Hillary!!

OMGZ LOOK!!! Florida has 0 traffic index and 100% packet loss...EMINENT WAR WITH FLORIDA

http://www.internettrafficreport.com/namerica.htm

I believe it. After all, we KNOW the retirees there don't get on the internet enough

Seriously though, no cables are getting cut around that Mexican Gulf, just the Persian one.

During the HillBill admin Tyco had an Enron moment whereby CEO Koslowski was up to his eyeballs in GlobalCrossing China stuff. This is where future events cast long shadows. Hopefully this is case of old fashioned greed where TycoGlobalCrossing takes out the completion in order to corner the market.

However there are worst scenarios like a planned financial meltdown using musical chairs. When fecal hits fan US/Euro and much of China can cash out and grab a chair but India & south Asia are left standing on the floor because bandwidth is gridlocked so they can't liquidate fast enuff.

Much more sinister is location of cut #2 in strait of Hormuz. Question is, does this put Iran's eyes out prior to attack? In gulf war one/1990 Hussein's IT/procurement staff was purchasing their computer gear thru Euro distributors. Military geeks in UK/USA had beforehand planted a nasty executable trojan in the buffer of some of the laser printers Saddam was using. So on que, thru the back door the program did its work and when the attack came Saddams guys had nothing but blue screens to stare at.

I'm not buying into anyones crazy conspiracies, but just as an update a fifth cable has been cut.

I don't deal in conspiracies either. This is an ideal move on our part from a military perspective though. We show the enemy that we can disrupt their lines of communication at will.

Not a bullet is fired, and there's no public outcry. And it potentially staves off a blow to our already ailing economy and dollar.

CFR?? I don't buy into that stuff. Trying to keep us as a superpower? Yep. That's standard national security practice.

 

[Nailhead]

I wonder if the repair teams will be able to determine better what happened. see if there was an obvious pierce point or somethin rather than just gettin pulled apart which is what i imagine an anchor would do

 

[driller80545]

I was joking about Bush. He's made daddy rich, defended his honor, and now he's headed down to the ranch.

 

[alionbe]

a few weeks ago some congressman said he was afraid there would be no election, that something would happen with Iran and Bush would declare martial law. maybe that prediction supposed a Ron Paul nomination and resulting revolution

 

[revolutionary8]

I agree aravoth

Absolutely.
This is the plan. General Hitlary is the annointed one. This is why we have a Dann Coulter endorsement, and every NeoCon ripping up McCain and ignoring Romney. McPain is supposed to win the nom and Hitlary/Obama 08 will "save us all"

God help us if the sheeple end up having to live with this guilt.
We must tell them all the truth.
more than RP, it is about spreading the truth. I don't even have to mention RP until later when speaking to those about the issues I will be voting on this election.

We can't go back. It s too late.

Iran still has internet...

CFR?? I don't buy into that stuff.

I didn't, either until I went to www.cfr.org and in their search box typed in globalization...scary stuff. If that doesn't get to you try searching stuff from the late nineties at www.newamericancentury.org (Iraq is a great subject to look up there).

 

[autobot]

You were right about CFR. I got this article from the cfr website. Explains there positions. They are totally right, too. National currencies do collapse. I may come over to the cfr side! All it would take is a dollar collapse. LOL


Comment: Globalization makes national currencies obsolete
Author: Benn Steil, Senior Fellow and Director of International Economics


November 8, 2007
National Post

Capital flows have become globalization’s Achilles heel. Over the past 25 years, devastating currency crises have hit countries across Latin America and Asia, as well as countries just beyond the borders of Western Europe — most notably Russia and Turkey. The economics profession has failed to offer anything resembling a coherent and compelling response to currency crises.

International Monetary Fund (IMF) analysts have, over the past two decades, endorsed a wide variety of national exchange-rate and monetary-policy regimes that have subsequently collapsed in failure. They have fingered numerous culprits, from loose fiscal policy and poor bank regulation to bad industrial policy and official corruption. The financial-crisis literature has yielded policy recommendations so exquisitely hedged and widely contradicted as to be practically useless. Anti-globalization economists have turned the problem on its head by absolving governments (except the one in Washington) and instead blaming crises on markets and their institutional supporters, such as the IMF — “dictatorships of international finance,” in the words of the Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz.

Is this right? Are markets failing, and will restoring lost sovereignty to governments put an end to financial instability? This is a dangerous misdiagnosis. In fact, capital flows became destabilizing only after countries began asserting “sovereignty” over money — detaching it from gold or anything else considered real wealth. Moreover, even if the march of globalization is not inevitable, the world economy and the international financial system have evolved in such a way that there is no longer a viable model for economic development outside of them.

Have you a source? Funny how MSM is not Breaking News on this. NOT!

 

[Number19]

Just a few notes of explanation...

Have you a source? Funny how MSM is not Breaking News on this. NOT!

Here's the link to 5 cables which currently have damage:
http://www.albawaba.com/en/countries/uae/221875

Second, Iran still has internet access to some degree. InternetTrafficReports only lists "routers" which are down. The router in Florida which is down - traffic can easily flow through the many other American routers. The router in Iran, which is shown, is located in Tehran, and its loss is much more damaging and significant. One possibility, though, is that the Iranian government may have shut it down for reasons of its own. We just don't know.

The last time such extensive damage occurred in one area over such a short period of time was 2006 in the area of the Philippines and was directly contributed to earthquakes and undersea landslides.

Egypt has officially disclaimed the "sea anchor" explanation for the damage off the port of Alexandria, saying there were no ships in the area at that time.

None of the damage has been credibly explained at this time as far as I know.

I don't know if this is valid, but it mentions black ops.

World Court Orders Arrests of President Bush and VP Cheney

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oUZSp7PDEw


At the end of January and beginning of February 2008, USA-Israeli BlackOps units moved in and cut eight or more major undersea internet cables in the region, crashing global internet access for the Middle East's banking centres in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, Iran, UAE, Turkey and Kuwait.

Israel was unaffected by the sabotage.

The deliberate severing of these cables immediately denied Gulf Cooperation Council members access to the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT), based in Brussels.

does this mean Florida (0), Michigan (0), Wisconsin (7) are under attack too?

perhaps internet traffic report is not the best source.

NWO global gov plans and one world currency have a BIG problem....

(read Harry Browne's Why) Government Doesn't Work. There
are no examples where it lasted (for long) throughout all recorded
history... Why on Earth would bigger be better now?

It will grow and grow until the gov boot is on everyone's neck and
there is no place to hide. The ultimate Sci-Fi dark future awaits where
central planning becomes an horrific joke for the great unwashed.

Contrast the U.S. Constitution that kept our gov in it's place for about 100
years, then started to slip faster and faster. Today it's largely ignored as
we race for the bottom.

Save us Ron Pau. Save us Ron Paul supporters who also run for gov office!
